Fixing a Robot Cable Break?
Although the wiring for robotic lawn mowers are quite robust, they are not immune to damage. When gardening damages can occur unintentionally in the loop wire. Particularly if the robot wire has been stretched excessively during installation. Luckily, breaks in the robot wire is not a regular occurrence. The good news is utilising a simple robot lawnmower repair kit can act as a quick fix method.

When joining the boundary wires:
1. Insert both cable ends into the coupler. Make sure the wires are fully inserted in the coupler by checking that the ends are visible through the transparent area on the opposite side of the coupler.
2.Now fully press down the button on top of the connector. Use a pair of pliers if the button on the coupler is difficult to press down by hand.
If the supplied boundary wire is not long enough to cover the entire working area, extra wire can be added using an original coupler. The total length of the boundary loop should however not exceed 800 meters.
